“…Our findings warrant further study of this phenomenon, and invite the possibility that other findings in the perceptual literature may be the result of suggestion and expectation. For example, recent findings showing the ostensible impact of hypnotizability on the rubber-hand illusion (Lush, Botan, Scott, Seth, Ward & Dienes, 2020), or confederate influence on perceptual judgements during the Asch experiment (Hajnal, Vonk, Zeigler-Hill, 2020) support this proposal.…”

Verbal hints can bias perceptual decision-making, even when the information they provide is false. Whether individuals may be more or less susceptible to such perceptual influences, however, remains unclear. We asked naive participants to indicate the dominant color in a series of stimuli, after giving them a false statement about which color would likely dominate. As anticipated, this statement biased participants perception of the dominant color, as shown by a correlated shift of their perceptual decisions, confidence judgments and response times. Crucially, this perceptual bias was more pronounced in participants with higher levels of susceptibility to social influence, as measured by a standard suggestibility scale. Together, these results indicate that even without much apparatus, simple verbal hints can affect our perceptual reality, and that social steerability can determine how much they do so. Susceptibility to suggestion might thus be considered an integral part of perceptual processing.

Verbal hints can bias perceptual decision-making, even when the information they provide is false. What makes individuals more or less susceptible to such influences, however, remains unclear. Here, we inquire whether suggestibility to social influence, a high-level trait measured by a standard suggestibility scale, could predict changes in perceptual judgments. We asked naive participants to indicate the dominant color in a series of stimuli after giving them a short, false verbal statement about which color would likely dominate. We found that this statement biased participants’ perceptual judgments of the dominant color, as shown by a correlated shift of their discrimination performance, confidence judgments, and response times. Crucially, this effect was more pronounced in participants with higher levels of susceptibility to social influence. Together, these results indicate that social suggestibility can determine how much simple (albeit false) verbal hints influence perceptual judgments.

“…Itu tentu menjadi suatu indikasi yang kurang baik dalam pembelajaran yang berkenaan dengan kemampuan berbahasa salah satunya ialah berbicara. Hajnal et al (2020) memberikan gambaran bahwa aspek kepercayaan diri membuat siswa dapat melakukan tugas yang diberikan dengan baik. Kepercayaan diri salah satunya didapatkan dari dukungan rekan sejawat di kelas maupun pihak-pihak yang terkait langsung dengan siswa tersebut.…”

This research aims to find out the influence of (1) self-confidence; (2) learning interest; (3) parental support; and (4) self-confidence, learning interests, and parental support; on negotiation speaking ability. The method used in this study is ex post facto. The sample used amounted to 204 students from the student population of class X SMAN 10 Samarinda. The analysis techniques in this study used regression models. The following research results were obtained based on the data analysis results. First, there is an influence between self-confidence in the ability to speak on the material of the student's negotiation text based on Sig grades. 0.000. Second, there is no influence between learning interests and the ability to speak on the student's negotiation text material based on Sig grades. 0.136. Third, there is an influence between parental support on the ability to speak on the material of the student's negotiation text based on Sig grades. 0.007. Fourth, there is an influence between self-confidence, learning interests, and parental support on the ability to speak on the material of the student's negotiation text based on Sig grades. 0.001, each with a test significance level of 5% (α=0.05).
